I agree............... ......

Cullum is a businessman.

He knows the "art of the deal"

You start low...... they start high

He says 20........ they say 56

We know he can refinace the debt so its basically
20 vs 40

Plus its not a given he assumes 100% of the shares.

He wants Delia and MWJ to stay on so its assumed they will still hold a minority interest.

This might be alot closer than we think.

Make it a 10-15 milion transfer budget and they might be really close.
